Lord of Echoes

There are voices to be heard From far and near Some are happy Most are sad And the joys once Are not necessarily just There are animals dying There are people crying Their voices create echoes In endless space Makes me wonder Is there someone that can hear those echoes? Voices of lower beings are hard to hear And even if heard hard to understand Is that the reason lord of echoes does not reply Because of distance of space and thought Life as we know is made by a fool Power corrupts And life breeds death For everyone must kill to survive Strength is necessary But it will not bring joy Individuality is good But it brings conflict Every light Has a dark side At least this has been my experience Yet sometimes there is silver lining Echoes are not at the full volume If receiver is far away I don’t know if this is the case and if receiver exists But if it does not there is this I must become lord of echoes
